    We’re whalers on the moon

    We carry a harpoon

    But there ain’t no whales

    So we tell tall tales

    And sing our whaling tune

          Then I will say no more about events themselves. The show itself can be up and down, but it’s always worth the ride, IMHO.

            Sure is! I saw the first episode many years back, it was good, but it was kinda slow. For some reason I forgot about it and now it popped up again. And now I can’t stop watching.

    It’s a sad state when my first thought going on a mission like this would be “but what if the politics change and I get stranded there?”

    Fuck that idea with a rusty cactus.

    The moon sucks. Sure, it’s pretty from here but living there would be super dangerous.

      I’ve got some bad news for you. Living on Earth is also dangerous… although I will admit at least here you can go outside.

        Almost every place on Earth is easier to live in than any place on the Moon.

        Speaking about physical conditions and not political circumstances.

        Colonizing everything from the Antarctic to the North Pole is more plausible than settling the Moon. Including oceans.

        But the Moon is nice (not talking about regolith that erodes solid materials like diamond dust) compared to the ideas of inhabited space stations in Lagrange points.

        My personal favorite is the idea of a colony someplace with gravity and melted water, but chemical makeup of many Solar system bodies is unclear and I’m not sufficiently learned. But that, provided the ability to regularly supply that and communicate with that, could really spawn a self-supporting colony that can survive on its own. Eventually. After Earth turns into something resembling Coruscant or Trantor.

        The atmosphere and magnetosphere are really important to me.
